Translations: hair, a hair, head of hair, to be cut off, to be destroyed, to be consumed, to be worn out
From the root: ΚΟΜΑ
Part of Speech: Noun, Verb
Explanation: The word 'ΚΟΜΑ' can refer to 'hair' or a 'head of hair' as a noun. As a verb, it is an inflected form of 'κόπτω' (koptō) or 'κόμίζω' (komizō) or 'κομάω' (komaō), meaning 'to be cut off,' 'to be destroyed,' 'to be consumed,' or 'to be worn out.' The context is crucial for determining the correct meaning. In the provided examples, 'ΚΟΜΑΣ' (plural of 'ΚΟΜΑ') in the first example clearly refers to 'hair.' The verbs 'ΜΝΗΣΚΟΜΑΙ' and 'ὈΛΕΚΟΜΑΙ' are inflected forms of other verbs, not directly related to the noun 'ΚΟΜΑ' or the verb 'κομάω'.
Inflection: Noun: Singular, Nominative, Feminine. Verb: First Person, Singular, Present, Middle/Passive, Indicative (from 'κομάω' meaning 'to wear long hair'); or various inflections of 'κόπτω' or 'κομίζω' depending on the context.
